==Summer 2018==
 
==Notes from Ed==
 
Please build and link to a project page for the STATA analysis!
 
Also, if/when you make changes to a sql file, please:
#Run them through or make it clear that you haven't with comments
#Let me know by posting it on a project page and linking to in your work log.
Otherwise, we are both going to be making conflicting changes to the same files.

'''2018-07-23 until 07-27:'''
 
This week was dedicated to refining the Linear Probability Model and the reduced form evidence that I did for Jeremy.
 
I added extensive notes to the interpretation of the coefficients of each model that was estimated as requested by Jeremy. I adjusted for small technicalities in each model.
 
Additionally, after a call with Ed, I checked the distribution of market size when using either year-code100 or year-code20 as market definition. See Project Page for more on this.
 
'''2018-07-11 until 07-20:'''
 
Basically spent this entire week working out the code to build the LPM dataset. Detailed description of code and dataset on project page.
 
'''2018-07-11:'''
 
Created a new SQL code to build the LPM dataset. Sent it to Ed Egan to check.
 
'''2018-07-12:'''
 
Sick day.
 
'''2018-07-11:'''
 
Skype meeting with Ed Egan to discuss new dataset. Need to build a broader dataset for running the LPM model. Started studying the SQL code and thinking about the necessary changes to get the desired dataset.
 
'''2018-07-10:'''
 
Investigated the reasons of why the LPM model is not giving the expected results.
 
'''2018-07-06:'''
 
Received new suggestions from Fox.
 
Started rewriting the report following comments from Fox.
 
'''2018-07-05:'''
 
Wrote a report with all the results so far by request from Jeremy Fox and sent it to him.
 
Also added a LPM model to the analysis, by suggestion from Jeremy Fox, although I suspect there is something wrong with the way I built the dataset needed for it. Emailed my worries to Fox.
 
After meeting with Ed Egan, changed the SQL code when building the history variables from VCs. Instead of subtracting 1 from the sum of all portcos that worked with the VC, now we do not subtract and instead of using weak inequality when LEFT JOINing, we use strict inequality.
 
'''2018-07-04:'''
 
Rework data analysis following suggestions from Egan and Fox.
'''2018-07-03:'''
Worked with regressions and made log files with summary statistics and outputs.
 
Had Skype meetings with Ed Egan and Jeremy Fox.
